A wonderful strike from Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli’s penalty put us in control in the first half.
However, Southampton replied through James Ward-Prowse on 52 minutes and put us under pressure in the second half without seriously testing Hugo Lloris again.
Mauricio and the players admitted it was a more workmanlike win than the performances we’ve seen of late against the likes of Chelsea, West Brom, Stoke and Everton but nevertheless, that is 10 straight wins at home in the Premier League, a huge achievement, building on our previous best of eight in the Premier League era.
